Living in beauty and watching
It fades and is rebuilt
Living in a garden
Continuing to be the caretaker
Your personal garden
Made to your preferences
Your garden represents your life
You can make the flowers numerous
Or you can leave them to wilt and fade away
The gardener you’ve become
To bring new intellect to the world
The teacher that has already bloomed
To bring smaller buds out of the ground
Watering them with the fluids of education
So they might produce new information to teach
A new generation that will be smarter than the first
You are the gardener
Living in a garden that you have created
Bringing the variety
And keeping the select types that you prefer
Keeping the garden trimmed weeded
And most of all watered
Hope that the garden will never
Shrink but continue to grow
Balancing each other out
The larger helping out the smaller
While the smaller steady the larger

Your garden is tended beautifully. Your words are living. Your words are life.
I like the vase shape you've given the poem.
